CHANDIGARH, MARCH 29
The Indian Olympic Association has offered Haryana to host the forthcoming National Games, originally allotted to Goa, according to Haryana Sports and Youth Affairs Minister Anil Vij. Talking to mediapersons during the ongoing budget session of Haryana Vidhan Sabha, Mr Vij assured that that the Department is geared up to host the forthcoming National Games.
He said that this time, the National Games were to be held in Goa, but as due to some reasons, the holding of these Games in Goa had become doubtful. Mr Vij said that the Haryana Government, was fully capable.
Mr Vij appealed to the warring factions of the Haryana Olympic Associations to short out their difference in the interest of the state and its sportspersons. The HOA should hold the elections as per the rules of the Indian Olympic Association.
Mr Vij said that senior officers of the state government have discussed in detail the issue of National Games with the officers of Sports Department of Government of India and those of Indian Olympic Association, but final decision in this regard would soon be taken so as to make the best of the opportunity given to the state.
The Sports Minister appealed to Mr Abhay Chautala of INLD and members of the Congress to resign from their respective posts in Haryana Olympic Association in the interest of the state and fresh elections should be got conducted under the supervision of Indian Olympic Association, Court or any independent agency.
Those who would be elected in these elections would be acceptable to all. In case the state government had to constitute an ad hoc committee to host National Games, it will be done because the tender is signed by the State Government and President of Olympic Association.
Mr Vij said that the biggest hurdle in successfully holding of the National Games was the functioning of the so called two-three Olympic Associations that had been believing themselves as right and others as wrong. It is because of them that the players are confused and they remain unable to participate in National Games. He reminded that such a situation was faced in the National Games held in Kerala last year.
